Chapter 346: Chapter 318 Lion King

Climbing the high tower, they encountered the Wing Membrane Demon. Manipulating electricity strong as a monster, they could not defeat it despite giving their all.

Li Cheng wiped the non-existent cold sweat off his forehead as he planted the Victory Flag Spear on the ground to serve as a lightning rod. After a wave of electric arcs swept by, Zhao Zijing and Talisman Nail Hua Long had their hair carbonized and their skin torn, the metal objects they carried melted, causing further burns to their bodies.

The only one unscathed was Bai Jixiong, who had transformed into a giant Earth Element. He looked down, threw his fist at the Wing Membrane Demon, but was instead grabbed by the wrist.

His weight, comparable to an African elephant, seemed like a ragdoll in the demon’s hand, slammed heavily to the ground, tossed around, and the stone skin of his body peeled off.

"Cover me! Four minutes is all I need!"

Talisman Nail Hua Long, not having time to worry about his injuries, shouted, drawing a huge piece of animal hide from the void, five meters square.

The hide was primitive, untreated, and the inside still bore dried, blackened bloodstains.

Rip!

He used a small knife to cut open the blood vessels on his right arm, blood gushing out, sliding down his arm to the brush, soaking into the bristle.

As the brush fell onto the hide, drawing an arc, the roar of beasts echoed faintly in the void, reverberating through the entire tower.

The Wing Membrane Demon, wrestling with the Earth Element, sensed something, turned to look at Talisman Nail Hua Long, and swiftly raised its slender fingers.

Massive electricity gathered at the demon’s red fingertips, arcs of electricity crackling, the air filled with the smell of ozone from ionization.

Bang!

A snake-like current suddenly shot out, rushing toward the focused painting Talisman Nail Hua Long, only to be deflected at the last second by a telekinetic shield, hitting the wall instead.

"Cough, cough."

Zhao Zijing, pale, coughed violently, using telekinesis like shoveling, and lifted Dorling Gray and Camus from the ground, removing the sticky mucus binding them.

In a life-or-death moment, every ounce of combat power is crucial.

But ... will it be enough?

The demon stepped forward, kicking the transformed Earth Element Bai Jixiong away, its wing membranes extending.

Without making any big moves, it simply tapped the ground with its bird-clawed feet, its figure shooting forward like an arrow, heading straight for Dorling Gray.

With green mucus still on his face, Dorling Gray’s eyes widened in rage. Having just recovered from critical injuries where his organs were chewed, he knew he couldn’t outrun the Wing Membrane Demon. There was only one option: fight to the death.

"You damn child of the beach!"

His expression contorted, stepping forward with his left foot, his right foot bracing against the step’s edge, his arm swelling, muscles bulging, veins popping, his fist, imbued with fierce winds, smashed towards the demon head-on.

[Consumption: At least 500 points of Physical Value]

[Cooling Time: None]

[Remark: I’m already burned out, only white ash remains]

The collision of fists, visible shockwaves violently spread out,

Dorling Gray’s entire arm exploded, vanishing from the shoulder, his consciousness fading, collapsing backward uncontrollably.

The demon, equally struck, had its right hand explode like a soda bottle with Mentos, blood spurting uncontrollably,

but its mutated constitution caused ruptured skin to auto-repair, enveloping the pale bones, healing the injuries.

The demon stepped forward, trying to deliver a finishing blow, but Zhao Zijing immediately used telekinesis to pull Dorling Gray back, avoiding the stomp.

Simultaneously, Camus, wielding the European Swift Sword, and Li Cheng, activating the Instant Thunder Skill, quickly joined the fray, intercepting the Wing Membrane Demon, preventing it from approaching Talisman Nail Hua Long.

Hurry, faster.

Talisman Nail Hua Long had entered a state of trance, his right hand cramping from the torn wound, so he gripped the brush with both hands, his entire body sprawling over the hide, using blood as ink, painting vigorously.

The image of a lion gradually took shape. The king of beasts stood on a bare giant rock, its mane waving in an unseen wind, looking down upon all creation.

Judging by the baobab trees in the background, the Lion King was at least thirty meters tall.

The primitive aura spilled from the hide, the entire space resonating with deep beast roars.

The Wing Membrane Demon no longer maintained its initial composure, throwing electric blasts one after another at the players.

Zhao Zijing, who had been using telekinesis to shield, finally couldn’t hold on, coughing up blood violently. Before she could even finish coughing, a fragment of the fragrant Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pills was thrown into her mouth to replenish her Spiritual Power Value and Sanity Value.

Two and a half minutes left.

The mere one hundred fifty seconds felt like an insurmountable chasm.

The demon rushed out, punching through Camus who stood before Talisman Nail Hua Long with his sword, penetrating his chest cavity and releasing electricity inside.

Although Li Cheng immediately used the Condensed Qi Internal Explosion Fist, triggering the stored power within the demon, and Zhao Zijing pulled Camus away with telekinesis, giving him a Life Potion,

the potion only congealed at Camus’ mouth, not dripping down—

the excessive electricity had completely destroyed his brain, causing almost instant death, and a dead man couldn’t be saved with a Life Potion.

The demon, ignoring its own injuries, turned its fist into a palm, striking towards Li Cheng’s head.

No time to mourn Camus, Li Cheng desperately ran the Multi-threaded Brain Domain Method, trying to capture the demon’s blurry movements,

instead of retreating, he advanced, raising the Victory Flag Spear, blocking in front of him.

[Special Effect 1: Counterattack Moment. After blocking the opponent’s attack, thrust the spear, knocking the target away. Hitting a wall causes double damage]

Clang!

The special effect activated, the tremendous power knocking the demon away, slamming it into the building’s damper.

Simultaneously arriving, a Medium Self-Aiming Gravity Energy Ball, and its replica generated by the Skill Mobile USB.

Two energy balls attached to the surface of the thousand-ton conical damper, the massive suction fixing the demon in place.

"Mud Surgery!"

Bai Jixiong roared, his rock arm thrusting into the ground, dissolving most of his body to create a mire around the damper.

Numerous muddy arms grew from the mire, gripping the Wing Membrane Demon’s legs, keeping it from moving.

Li Cheng seized the chance, summoning the Demon Cannon Tank, pouring firepower on the demon, while holding the Avenger Cannon, pressing the trigger, unleashing continuous fire.

Even the electrocuted Father Andre, cured by a consumable perfect-grade item named the Saint Shroud, struggled to stand,

pulling out a holy tome from his bosom, chanting loudly, summoning Holy Light.

Sadly, the demon only appeared to be a demon, being a mutated creature, it wasn’t affected by the Holy Light’s double damage.

It withstood the gravity ball’s pull, like a bat, spreading its wing membranes around itself.

While blocking the cannon fire and Holy Light strikes, it gathered massive electricity, then suddenly released it.

Another wave of arcs swept the room, breaking all the hands from the mire, slightly melting the conical damper.

The gravity energy balls didn’t stay in space; as the damper surface melted, the gravity balls fell with the molten metal.

The demon broke free completely, diving forward, this time, the electric arcs pushing all the players, including Li Cheng, back, leaving nothing between it and Talisman Nail Hua Long...

Huh?

The demon’s dive suddenly stiffened, bird’s claw skidding along the ground, coming to an abrupt halt.

Talisman Nail Hua Long raised his head from the hide, a hint of a smile on his bloodless face, "Four minutes, it was a lie."

The lion painting was completed ahead of schedule.

The demon turned to flee without hesitation, but the next moment, a giant lion’s head, larger than a truck, emerged from the void, looking down at the demon with detached eyes, slowly yet rapidly opening its mouth, taking a deep breath.

"Roar!"

The lion’s roar shattered the outer walls of the high tower. Andre, Zhao Zijing, and the others’ eardrums burst, while the demon, facing the roar directly, was pinned to the ground by the air currents, its flesh tearing off piece by piece.
